In the Netherlands the law is pretty straigtforward that this is a bad idea: > The "Nature of Employment" Rule: If you are hired as a software developer, almost any software you cr…

The second example given (extracting information from a web view) is also weird. The rust code has the exact same flaw as the java code, which is that they do not validate the sour…

From what I understand, they only have to review/audit the times a gem was yanked, to see if it was a legitimate action. I reckon there is a lot less occurrences

`m` is not a legal value, should be either `min` or `mo` for minutes or months respectively. `s` is actually one of the SI base units: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_S…

if your manager is ok with it, don't register it as a sick day. Makes it potentially more complicated with the company doctor. Just consider it a workday spend on ...whatever. Mana…

We are using Clickhouse combined with GDPR's Data Deletion Requests. We store the user-ids in a separate system, and run the ALTER/DELETE statements once per week. Works pretty smo…

I wonder how this will play out with https://altinity.com who have been doing enterprise support for quite some time..

Rabobank was the one with the horrible non-native client so pretty sure he is talking about ING :)

You missed the "Do you take a lot of pictures with your phone?" If the answer is yes, you won't get to the mini.

Hmm.. not 100% sure but I see 2 bugs in the PHP script: 1. the src of the image in the HTML is the local path on the hosting server (it would become src="/var/www/nyt/nyt.jpg" ) 2.…

Ehm yeah. If it was groundbreaking. But there are 5+ other contenders in this field who are dealing with the same issues, and in some cases are fairing better. We are currently eva…

I would be careful to attribute framework decision making to careful thought. This is more the regular organizational dysfunctionality. Either: - The entire organization uses a sin…

Our company (on the scale of running it's own private cloud) has switched over to OpenJDK. Oracle is a non-issue for us For people actually working with JVM and the languages on to…

Some more information: https://www.slideshare.net/RandyShoup/the-ebay-architecture-... (slide 10) That ebayisapi.dll was 3.3 million lines of code. Currently it is only still in th…

For what it's worth, ebay.co.jp is actually not running on their main platform. You can see the difference in the HTML code between ebay.com, ebay.de (both on the main platform) an…

I would expect to use the first day of a month as a default, just like when time is not specified it should use 00:00 as default. Taking the current time/day as a default sounds of…

Leap seconds are not accounted for in epoch-time. Basically, 23:59:59 and 23:59:60 have the same value (this also makes it easier by not having to handle the 60 :) ) We disabled le…
